This Saturday my photograph is a photo of Ashia, a Ugandan girl whose education my daughter and I sponsor through Givology. A friend of a friend went to Uganda last month and took presents to Ashia for us. I was so excited that someone from my home was going to meet Ashia and be able to deliver something that she wanted: a dress.

There are no words to describe this. It's just wonderful.
what a wonderful post and you must be so happy that someone was able to share the gift and photo for you~
What a wonderful opportunity!
What a lovely way to support a child in need.
J.L., Food for thought, Alyce, Trish--Givology has a great system where you choose the project or person you want to sponsor. There is some back and forth so that you get feedback, thank yous, can send notes, etc. I really like the personal aspect of it!
Beautiful. Sometimes we forget that something little to us means a lot to someone else.
How lovely! Both what you are doing and Ashia. Great post today!
Leslie--Well said. We also sent paper, pens and pencils for the teachers at her school. A few minutes at Staples for me meant a lot to them
Karla--That's how I feel too!
Bev--I really hope to meet Ashia one day. I know that doing this is good for my daughter as well. She enjoyed trying the clothes on to see if she thought Ashia would like them
